Yeah, easy solution: Plan ahead and type quickly. Have it all prepared ahead of time and Control V it all.

I think my poll options are usually pretty high quality.

The first post tends to be just about zippo. I start with an idea for a couple of funny poll options, say 3 good ones... then I post and hit the button for a 6 option poll. Then I don't worry about how fast I type 'em out, I take a few minutes to do it RIGHT
